The house has been taken over by Doyle boys and it will remain in their full control for the next 5 days. Keane and Cullen’s cousins, Paul and James came all the way from Boston to meet the newest addition to the clan, Cullen, and to spend some quality fun time with Keane.

They were up before the sun even rose this morning, excited and eager to get the fun times started. Still in their pajamas and ignoring the mothers demands that they eat breakfast before they start their busy day of crazy, the boys were out and ready for The Husband to take them 4-wheeling around the property. 4-wheeling group shot.

Keane was a little nervous to take his turn, so Paul ran alongside him for some moral support.

And then he continued to followed them down the driveway.

Not far behind James is also in hot pursuit.

Now Keane is into it.

Eventually we got the boys in for some breakfast, but then it was back outside again where Paul got stuck into helping The Husband with our never ending fence project.

While the “men” were busy with the manual labor, the smaller boys entertained themselves with some ball tossing up into the trees.

James and Keane have become thick as thieves and are getting up to all kinds of mischief together.

The boys brought Keane a rocket launcher and here they are about to take it for a test launch.

Keane reminds Daddy that the rocket must go up.

Paul ready to catch it on landing, but it just slipped through his fingers.

Keane kicked off his Easter weekend with a school day filled with fun. A parade of little bunnies, a party and an Easter Egg hunt. Here Keane spotted me in the crowd of parents and immediately became emotional.

So momma had to jump in and walk with him for a while, which helped turn the mood around and brought a smidgen of joy to his parade experience.

Rocking the Irish bunny ears.

Inside for party time.

Refuses to take off his ears.

Not sure what the conversation is between Keane and his friend David here, but it looks serious.

When you leave the responsibility of dressing the baby to The Husband, this is what you come home to. Baby squeezed into a figure hugging version of The Husband’s team jersey. Never mind that its currently the off season.

When you leave the responsibility of dressing the baby to The Wife, this is what you get. Cutie baby, wearing cutie bear whose wearing flying goggles.
